I don't think that it is a Black Ace either Rick but I don't have a clue as to what make or model it is. Sure is pretty though

One of the favorites in my arsenal, super overlays on the front and backside of the riser. Mine has a twist to the upper limb that just won't work out and I have to tweak it back after every two or three shots. But it is worth it.

Not many Cheyennes out there.

The limbs on this one are straight as an arrow....Just a few varnish problems.

That's a beautifull bow, and a heck of a chunk of wood.
